Jürgen Scholz

First of all I am a passionate tax advisor who provides - together with our teams of specialists - business-oriented tax advice and innovative solutions to our clients.

In addition to this, I am entrusted with responsibility for several key areas of WTS Germany’s advisory services including Indirect Taxes & Business Partnering. In my role as Global Head of Indirect Tax, I further support the dynamic growth of WTS’ Global Indirect Tax practice which has already positioned itself as a preeminent practice globally, recognized inter alia as Best Indirect Tax Firm in Europe for three consecutive years (2017-2019) and as Americas Indirect Tax Firm of the year 2019 by ITR.

Prior to joining WTS, I gained experience working with the German tax authorities, a highly reputed (investment) bank and from the international organization of a Big 4.  

I am a certified German Tax Advisor and hold a diploma in Fiscal Economics from the University of Applied Sciences in Nordkirchen, as well as a master degree in International Business Law from the University of St. Gallen (M.B.L.-HSG).

My specialization lies in international supply chain and service structures, the co-sourcing of Tax and Finance functions (Business Partnering) as well as in Indirect Taxes. I am a regular speaker at international tax conferences, publish in several journals and am a member of the advisory council to Germany‘s leading VAT journal, as well as a board member of the scientific organization on VAT in Germany. This focus has been awarded by several publications recognizing me as a leading tax advisor in Germany.
